It's also a useful one, since it allows authors (and some of their fans) to advertise their work. Or it can be used as part of a simple pranking system, as I have done here :)

Definitly a 'take it or leave it' sort of thing though.
I'm quite 110% sure he meant you leaving the numbers (n+1) in the bottom of your post and not the signature itself.

The signature feature itself is obviously not a Gimmick. :D

The Guy Who Mugs Skitter In Every Fic
Awww... I felt badly for the guy this time oddly enough. Wish Ammy had been able to break him out of his cycle.

but, how am I going to know what the post number is without that awesome little thing?

BTW, I figured that out without reading the signature ^.^ go me *cheers* probably easier to read the signature than my method of finding out though :oops:
 
Why does it even matter what post is given which number?

Is this like that weird 'I collect alerts, I'm up to 20,000 on the little red icon now!' thing?

don't remind me O.O that drives me crazy seeing that red bubble up and they don't click on it to make it go away...

Anyways...
back to the story, I wonder when Kaiser tries to confront Taylor and our lovable derp god, wolf, dog because he would obviously keep a close eye on the woman who is raising his daughter and son now like a creeper/ stalker, the prick who has control issues. Sorry, that's my inner Nazi-ist showing. I mean the awesome guy that isn't internally grinding his son to dust through his sheer willpower because his son doesn't have the same mindset as his.

so, yeah I'm very interested in how US is going introduce Kaiser and his merry band of Neo-Nazis and what Ammy's response is going to be.

Edit: or more interesting, Theo's response to his step mom making friends with Taylor

A Skittering Heart. Great story, but the thread between chapters is like a runaway train that goes off topic with completely random stuff. It can be upwards of like 70 pages between updates. There is something like 23 chapters and a maxed out 1500 page thread.
How many of those posts were basically "me too" or "I like" with no other content? Because from skimming the Constellation Thread on SB that seems to be what was getting infracted, not having lots of more-a-less on topic discussions.
 
The real question in my mind is if the new Dallon Overlord will spend all of it's time riding about on Carol's shoulder or on her head.

i'm very torn on this... on one hand, I would love to read a Dr. Briefs/ Scratch type of thing with the kitten being both badass and adorable at the same time. on the other hand, the adorableness of a kitten on her head would cause the D'aaaww factor to rise to new heights.

for reference:




now to tip the scale a little....

 
so a more adorable version of this?


It comes from this classic meme.

Edit: Link is dead. New link.

In case link dies again: It is a Motivator-style image, showing a WK40K tank with a commissar sticking his torso out of the commander's hatch. The commissar is holding a sword and gesturing dramatically forward. The caption is:
DRIVE ME CLOSER!
I want to hit them with my sword!
This image should be the first result for a Google image search for 'drive me closer meme'.

Well sonny-me-lad, back in the old days we called them "jokes," and if you weren't in on them, we didn't have no fancy schmancy ding dong dizzle entrytube thing to look them up on. AND WE LIKED IT!

well gosh sir, I didn't mean to offend it's just, I thought you old folks would have more words for "something that makes me laugh". Also, for it to be a joke, it must be funny....unlike a lot of old "jokes" :p
 
An hour later, the second and third kitten had both found homes, and the fourth and last was sitting huddled in the corner of the box, looking even smaller and alone without its siblings. Taylor eyed the darkening sky, but continued walking her bike along the sidewalk. Sunny walked in front, and the canine turned at the mailbox of the last house on the row. Taylor gave it a cursory glance as she followed on her way to the door-- the mailbox had fancy lettering that spelled out 'Dallon.'
"Uh, hi. Sorry to bother you, but-- I found these kittens, and they need homes. Do you think you could care for a pet?" She held the box out a bit more, then added, "There's just the one left."

"Look, I'm really not..." The woman trailed off, her eyes on the box. The last kitten, curled very small in the corner of the box, looked up. It gave a small, pleading cry. The woman-- presumably, Mrs. Dallon-- stared, transfixed.

"I..." She started, then swallowed. Her hands reached for the box, and she lifted out the kitten with shaking fingers. The kitten mewed, then licked at her polished nails. "...sure. I'll take it."
This is not what I expected to happen, yet it maes too much sense for this to have not been the outcome. I just hope Carol gets to name the kitten herself and that it clings to her no matter how much aura Victoria brings out at any time.
Hey, Taylor got bird feed, so birds are a go. Soon the shrine will look like a scene out of a Disney princess movie!
I think you mean sparrows.
Yet, ASH, the most over inflated shit posting thread in CW, gets ignored. Its gone 20 pages in like 2 days since the last update. Seemed like a better place to start if they wanted to make an example and flex their e-peen.
ASH has shitposting? Other than complaining about that one thing so much that the author had to shove a spoiler at them so they would stop. All I remember was the absurd amount of roleplaying that involved a castle, kaiju formulas, lots of fire, and one of the users responding to a new chapter by shouting "ASHlanders assemble!!!" while beating on a cheese-shaped drum.
 

To be fair, the Dawn of War II version shown above was inspired directly by that meme. In fact, the Imperial Guard in that game has a ton of memes and refs, ex. "My chief weapons are surprise and fear", "It's dangerous to go alone, take this", etc.

... mines better cuz it has sound :p

on a more serious note, I sort of figured it was from the TableTop game to some degree because the TT version of WH40k was a thing before I was born so its like... 30 years..ish? that's a lot of time to make memes, or the old timer's equivalent.

Well, Dawn of War II: Retribution is a Warhammer 40K game, so that line is basically an ascended meme.

It amuses me that you ask this then go on to list a whole pile of examples, haha. But yes, with the random tangents and the role-playing around in circles that goes on and other little things I'd say yes. It was entertaining for a little bit but it made the thread tedious to keep up with, since it was a constant stream of new posts every couple minutes.

Kitten should be named Fleur or something.
